Toe Beans, Teamwork, and the Strategic Use of Churu

Are toe beans your weakness? Do you believe a dedicated Churu budget is essential to excellent feline medicine? Weymouth Landing Cat Clinic may be exactly where you belong.

We’re looking for a compassionate, detail-oriented Veterinary Assistant & PM Boarding Attendant to join our fantastic team. If you’re passionate about animal welfare, client education, and giving every kitty the extra-special attention they deserve, we’d love to meet you.

Weymouth Landing Cat Clinic is a three-doctor, feline-only hospital in Weymouth, Massachusetts, where progressive medicine meets a genuine love of cats. Our team is cross-trained in everything from boarding and surgery to our radioactive iodine program and plenty in between. We’re proud of the medicine we practice—and equally proud of the people who make it happen.

Why Our Veterinary Assistants / Boarding Attendants Love It Here

• A feline-only environment where cats are always the main event
• Progressive medicine with Fear Free and Low-Stress Handling principles
• A close-knit team of genuine, hardworking cat lovers
• Cross-training throughout multiple areas of the hospital
• Opportunities to build and use your technical skills every day
• Hands-on experience with appointments, patient care, diagnostics, boarding, and more
• Mentoring and support as you grow and advance your career
• A positive culture that encourages empathy for patients, clients, coworkers, and ourselves
• Opportunities to make a difference for pets and their people in your community
• Regular opportunities to deploy Churu as an essential kitten-distraction strategy

What You’ll Do

• Run appointments alongside our veterinarians and support efficient patient flow
• Assist veterinarians and veterinary technicians during examinations, treatments, and procedures
• Prepare and administer medications as directed by the veterinary team
• Handle and restrain feline patients confidently and compassionately with an emphasis on reducing stress
• Provide diligent evening care for boarding patients, including feeding, cleaning, comfort, and observation
• Maintain a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for boarding patients
• Monitor patients closely and report changes in behavior, health, or condition
• Perform venipuncture and collect patient samples
• Obtain high-quality diagnostic radiographic images
• Operate in-house laboratory equipment and assist with diagnostic testing
• Provide attentive daily nursing and patient care
• Maintain clean and organized treatment and patient-care areas
• Keep laundry and other essential hospital tasks moving throughout the day
• Communicate clearly and compassionately with clients and fellow team members
• Follow task-based worklists to ensure responsibilities and communications are completed
• Maintain accurate and up-to-date client and patient records in the practice management system
• Protect client confidentiality and follow hospital policies and procedures
• Collaborate with veterinarians, veterinary technicians, client care specialists, and other team members to maintain an efficient workflow and high standard of care

What You’ll Bring

We’re looking for someone who understands that great feline care requires technical skill, patience, empathy, and occasionally a strategically positioned tube of Churu.

You’ll bring:

• Empathy for clients, coworkers, patients, and yourself
• Previous veterinary experience is a plus, but a willingness to learn is even more important
• A genuine desire to work closely with cats and understand their individual needs
• Commitment to compassionate, low-stress patient handling
• Ability to ask for help when you need it and offer help when others do
• Strong multitasking and time-management abilities
• High attention to detail and excellent organizational skills
• Ability to remain calm and compassionate during stressful situations
• A collaborative, team-first mindset and willingness to jump in where needed
• Reliability, positivity, and a genuine passion for veterinary medicine
• A desire to continue learning from a feline-focused team with plenty of knowledge to share
• A firm commitment to letting every pet parent know exactly why their cat is clearly the best cat that has ever existed

The Extras You’ll Actually Feel

At Weymouth Landing Cat Clinic, you’ll have opportunities to cross-train, strengthen your veterinary skills, and learn from a team that knows cats inside and out. Whether you’re assisting with appointments, sharpening your diagnostic skills, caring for boarding patients, or learning another area of the hospital, there’s always something new to discover.

Our Fear Free and Low-Stress Handling principles help us create a better experience for patients and the people caring for them. We also believe empathy extends beyond our feline patients. Helping pet parents feel safe, informed, and heard—and supporting the coworkers beside you—is an important part of what we do.

You’ll find mentoring, hands-on learning, opportunities to support your community, a culture that celebrates what makes you uniquely you, and, naturally, frequent Churu deployment in the name of happier kittens and smoother patient care.
